So basically Canelo is saying that BoxingScene is not legit?

[PACnPBFsuck]

I have read boxing scene top headlines daily for years. As a big Canelo fan I have followed the negotiations for this fight very carefully. In 2011 when Canelo could make a lighter weight Team Canelo offered to fight Mayweather at a catchweight of 152 pounds and that is where Ellerbie gets this from. In the 2013 negotiations for this fight Team Mayweather wanted Canelo to fight Floyd at the welterweight limit of 147. Team Canelo refused and said the fight must be at the Jr. middleweight limit of 154. With Schaefer trying hard to get the fight made and almost a month of negotiations both sides agreed on a compromise weight of 152. There was never any way in hell Floyd was going to fight Canelo at 154. If anybody can show me anything from boxing scene or any other boxing site where team Canelo started the 2013 negotiations with an offer to fight at 152 I will retract this. Canelo agreed finally to fight at 152 as a last resort because it was that or no fight. As for Canelo's body language showing he was angry about what Ellerbie said, of course he was angry because Ellerbie is lying and calling his team idiots. Unless you consider something that was offered in 2011 has anything to do with the 2013 negotiations for this fight Ellerbie is the liar and team Canelo is telling the truth.

Can I get a link to the article where Canelo wants the fight at 154 and Floyd says no to him. Thanks

Canelo and his team could've played it off much better. Should've showed them more confidence in the catch weight. Should've been like "Joke's on them, I've gone down 2 pounds in the past, no problem."

They kind of did. Mayweathers team had said no higher then 147 before. They went all the way up to 152.

floyd mayweather is a liar

we know how he said he fights guys at their best and does not believe cw count as wins, then when he got the 152 fight made, he said team canelo wanted it, this was another liar

here is a link of canelo saying he wanted the fight at 154, therefore proving it was not him wanting a 152 cw but floyd

He showed an article on boxingscene that Ellerbe was referring to. He has no idea what each team discussed in the negotiations in private.

He's saying you'd have to be an idiot to believe a story from 2 years ago over things he said 2 months ago. Mayweather is trying to sell to us that the comments from 2 years ago matter and his fans are buying it.

Exactly. There's no way to turn this in Floyd's favor. His fanbase however try.

On Episode 3 last night, they stated that they NEVER said anything about a catch-weight of 152 or such. Basically that team Mayweather requested it.
Now we all have seen the thread of Canelo stating they would come down to 152 or 151 for the fight.

So is this basically them stating that don't believe everything you see on BoxingScene?

random poster to BoxingFollower - "But that was two years ago"
BoxingFollower - "So what, he said he would do it"


Flip the script


Manny agrees to Floyds testing

BoxingFollower - "doesn't matter, that was two years ago and the offer is now off the table"
